Okay, let me dig some out of picture frames, etc. and I'll post here...post yours here too and we'll see how similar they are! I wonder if we are related somehow, generations ago...Here are some family names from grandparents, and greats...Pippin, Carmack, Forgey, Sproles, Kenny, Glover. Anything familiar? Shot in the dark, I suppose...

Hey, nobody in my family thinks you're gorgeous sister looks like me! I've been instructed to post my "fat face collage" which I made up last week but chickened out of posting due to grotesqueness...here goes anyway...see what ya'll think! My sister thinks I just look like her in that particular photo....humph...

Wow thats stange!!! Are you sure you aren't related??? You guys could pull some good twin PRANKS !!! LOL!!!

Oh my gosh Bright, so are just georgeous!!!!!! Your jaw is stronger and face longer than Christie's...2004 looks the most like her of all the four. Let me figure out this scanner/computer thing and post some more of her...

Oh my gosh, I can't believe it worked...it took me almost 45 min, but I'll try some more. Forgive me for practicing...

Bright · 03-22-2005, 12:27 PM

Hey practice makes perfect Kelly! Well done! And thanks so much for the compliments!

Twins, you're twins! No doubt about it. Thanks for sharing. This is fun!

They look more different the more photos we see. It's that one Black&White of Bright in particular that looks so much like Christie! Wow! It's so weird to see a picture of my sister, knowing it isn't her...

I'll keep practicing my attachment posting and picture editing, it's kinda fun, but I'm glad there's no rush...hehe

I have an almost 4 year old daughter that is very tomboyish and refuses to wear dresses. I was doing some shopping on ebay for a christmas dress (for pictures only) last year and there was a little girl that a seller used for a model and she was identical to my daughter.... I even fooled my husband and mother. I emailed the seller and told her the the girls looked so much alike and I attached a photo of my little one, she said that she almost fell off her chair because the little girl that did her modeling had a new hair cut, excatly the same as my daughters. And the really freaky part???? They are only 2 days apart in age. Weird huh? I did buy the dress and I cheated and sent the pic from the auction to several of my friends :alien I did take pictures but hers were so much better than mine were...is that bad of me????~Mandy

You do look very similar!! I have a 1/2 sister, who I have never met and doesn't know about me who I have been told looks just like me. Especially our baby-13 pictures. I just found out about her a couple years ago (I am still waiting on my birth-father to tell her about me---I was adopted and just met him about 2 years ago). She and I are less than a year apart, so it is funny to see her and I at the same ages in pictures, same hair styles and everything....only difference I got the weight problem lol
At least now I will know what I look like skinny

I am a very happily-married woman, but I have to confess that I have such a crush on Bright! And now with the 2005 picture...well, I'm just dumbfounded. Bright—it's not enough that you're brilliantly witty, compassionate, articulate and perceptive—now you have to look like a freaking model?

Girl, you are on fire! Is that the fabulous outfit you bought for your fancy party? You had us all clicking on those links and drooling over the clothes. Man!

Hope to meet you in NYC during the much-anticipated bandster get-together but not to worry—I'll get my crush under control before then.

Best to you,
Sheila

Edited to add: Kathy, your sister is beautiful, too.

I think we all have a swin somewhere, too.

A few years ago--my son, age 18 months started at a new daycare--it was a family daycare, 6 kids at a ladys house...anyway, she had pix of her kids on the walls and a graduation pix of her son in cap and gown, with both his parents.....I got to know this woman well (obviously) and she and I became friends. I looked at that pix a million times--never thought anything about it.

My son, now age 5 talks up a storm, but then he didn't say much except momma and daddy. Well, one day he walked up to that picture (in a frame on the table) and I told him not to touch it. And he pointed and said , "look, momma". I laughed and said, no that is sally (the daycare lady) blah blah....
He kept saying "momma" and pointing, so finally I went over there and looked closely at the pix and in the background you can see a woman who looks exactly like me! I never noticed it before he pointed it out! Sally never noticed it, either. The image isn't blurry, but crisp and clear. My baby noticed it, tho!

Strange. I often wonder who that woman is.....:)
